    Says a lot without saying a lot. A picture is worth 1,000 words! I like Homeland Security best.

    I have felt since I first heard the Drill Baby Drill chant that it sounded like it was coming from a bunch of drunken sailors on the make.

  16. Ivanhoe says:

    I just looove your sense of humor, Claudia. The drilling almost killed me :o )

  17. Darla says:

    I love the pictures you chose to go with these key words and phrases. Just wonderful, and so creative. I didn’t think anything could make me smile about this election, and you managed it. Thanks!

  18. Bethanne says:

  19. Vixen says:

    You never disappoint me with your creativity and smarts, girl! This is wonderful. I hope we make it through soon…I don’t know how much more of this I can take!

  20. Judi says:

    What if I don’t want to hang with them and I certainly don’t want to hang alone. Do I have another option?

  21. Tammy says:

    Great job, very funny! Happy TT

    I think #3 was my fav. I’m a sucker for the cuteness factor.

  26. storyteller says:

    Hugs and blessings,

  27. This is BRILLIANT!!! I needed to read this because I’m thinking about my unopened 401(k) statement!

  28. tommie says:
